Announcements

Donna Webb, representing the absent Mary Walton, reminded us of two important up-coming events. The Progressive Dinner, or as Keith Roy called it, the Pub Crawl for Old People, will be held on October 28 and will feature guests from Turkey. The Fashion Show, scheduled for November 25, promises to be the do-not-miss event of the season. Donna thanked Maureen and Roy Smith for the production of fantastic tickets. Donna encouraged all of us to donate services as we have done in the past. Maureen Smith reminded us that our Happy Dollar contributions for this week and next will be added to the $40 collected last week and forwarded to the Union Gospel Mission in support of their Thanksgiving Dinner, which feeds 10,000 people! Joanne MacPherson encouraged all members to sign up for the Rotary Golf Tournament to be held at the UBC Golf Course on September 21st. The cost is $215 and the profits go in support of the El Hogar orphanage in Honduras. Last year, $197,000 was raised by this event!
